Chapter 119: Exp In Real World
"I read about Divinity online. It seems like a fascinating place. How’s your adventure inside going?" She inquired.
"It’s going better than I expected. Still, if I could, I wouldn’t be playing it," Ryder said.
"Why? From what I’ve seen, you were so excited about the ga before it was released. What changed?" she inquired as her curiosity peaked.
"Too many things happened. It’s complicated, but there’s clearly sothing wrong with the ga. I don’t know how or why, but it doesn’t feel like a ga anymore," Ryder let out softly.
"Isn’t that a good thing? I don’t know much about gas, but that just ans that the ga is more realistic," Alice chid in her opinion.
"It’s just a little too realistic for comfort," Ryder muttered.
"Anyway, You will graduate in a year. What are you planning to do next?" Ryder asked.
Even though he knew what her plan was, he realized that he wouldn’t be able to explain how he knew about it if he talked about that.
"I don’t have anything for sure yet, but I’ve been thinking about continuing my studies. I might apply in a bunch of universities for a scholarship, and we’ll see how it goes," Alice said.
"You don’t need to worry about scholarships. I’m well enough to pay the fees. Also, the universities in the country seem great. Don’t apply for foreign universities, alright?" Ryder told her.
"Well, I’ve heard of the great reputation of China’s Tsinghua University. I was thinking of applying there as well. There are universities comparable to that when it cos to literature in Arica as well, but getting scholarships in them is really hard, and the fees are outright terrible," She replied as she thought about it.
"Nope, The fees are perfectly fine. Don’t make a decision based on fees. Just focus on studies and choose the best University in our country. I’ll handle the rest," Ryder said.
He rembered that last ti Alice had gone to China as she received a scholarship from there. He didn’t want her to leave now that he was in the right spot financially.
"If that’s what you want, then I won’t apply for foreign universities," Alice nodded her head.
"That’s better," Ryder smiled as he continued dinner.
"Thanks for the food. It was tasty like always,"
After finishing up, he stood up and went back to his room.
"Janus? Now that I think about it, you still haven’t explained to how I can gain experience in real life and increase my strength. Are you going to tell or let the opportunity go to waste," Ryder asked.
"The experience can be gained when the host defeats the ones that attack him," Janus replied.
"Defeat the ones that attack ? You an I have to beat the guys, and I will only gain exp if they were the ones that attacked first?" Ryder inquired.
"Yes. You will gain experience when you do that, and your level in this world will increase accordingly," Janus said.
"That’s an interesting concept. Will it still work if I make them attack or only if they attack without trying to make them attack ?" Ryder asked again.
"As long as they attack you, everything is valid, but if you attacked them first, and then they attacked you, it won’t count," Janus replied.
"That ans I can use so loopholes. I should start leveling up in the real world too," Ryder let out as he picked his Divinity Glasses.
"Oh right, I also wanted to ask you sothing, but I forgot. I saw a vision-like thing when I was giving the speech on my coronation. Do you have any idea what that was?" Ryder inquired.
"I do, but I can’t tell you," Janus responded.
"Why not? What are you afraid of? Aren’t you the Godly system that can do anything?" Ryder asked in curiosity.
Janus didn’t reply.
"Alright. Don’t answer ," Ryder snorted as he wore the glasses.
"Take to Divinity," He said.
Ryder found himself in his bed in the Demon Realm.
He sat up and left his room. Miku was standing outside his room.
"Your Highness, You’re up. Soone is here to et you," She inford Ryder.
"Who is it this ti?" Ryder inquired.
"It’s the Granddaughter of High Duke Oris," Miku said.
"His granddaughter? What is she doing here? Could it be that she brought the invitation letter for her Grandfather’s birthday? This is too fast," Ryder muttered as he went towards the throne room with Miku.
As he got there, he saw a girl standing there. Her back was facing him. Ryder could even see her hair as shiny as the moon itself. She also looked tall. She seed to be of the sa height as Ryder. She wore a beautiful white dress.
Ryder didn’t say anything and continued walking. The sound of his footsteps attracted the attention of the girl who turned back to look at him.
Ryder finally saw her face. She had deep black eyes similar to her grandfather. Even though she looked beautiful, Ryder didn’t glance at her much and continued walking as he passed by her.
Without looking back, he walked to the throne.
’Have to maintain my dignity,’ he thought as he stopped right before the throne. He turned back and sat on the throne like a King who ruled the land.
"Who are you?" Ryder finally said sothing as he asked a question, the answer of which he knew.
The girl gracefully bowed before him as she started speaking.
"Greetings Your Highness, I’m Felina, the granddaughter of High Duke Oris.
"What brings you here?" Ryder inquired.
"I ca here to invite Your Highness for the birthday celebration of my grandfather," She said.
"I heard about that. High Duke Oris talked about his birthday. But isn’t it too soon to distribute invitations? He said that he would send one a few days before the event," Ryder asked.
"I’m sure he said that, but it’s the first invitation we made. I thought that it would be better if we gave the first invitation to Your Highness as soon as we can," Felina told Ryder.
"Alright. I accept the invitation," Ryder said. He tried to keep his voice as commanding as he could during the conversation.
He extended his hands towards Felina, who walked closer to him.
The invitation was as small as a small coin, which seed to be the tradition here. She gave the invitation to Ryder. Their fingers touched in unintentionally, but Ryder acted as if it wasn’t a big deal. There was no change in his expressions.
"I’m done here; I’ll take my leave, Your Highness," She said.
"Alright. You can go," Ryder let out.
Felina turned back and walked towards the exit. Ryder finally relaxed his expressions as he watched her back.
